Post by: krautbernd on May 25, 2020, 01:49:42 am

This in regards to a recent addition to OXCE

- Option to modify ruleset lists without completely redefining them (!add and !remove YAML tags) : https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,6586.msg127524.html#msg127524

I'm trying to additional soldier types to starting conditions (as a submod for XCF):

Code: [Select]

startingConditions:
  - type: STR_LABOR_GEAR
    defaultArmor:  !add
      STR_VETERAN_SOLDIER:
        STR_WORKSUIT_UC: 100
But this overwrites the definition instead. Are !add and !remove not supported for those type of lists?

This right now work only for list and list look like:

Code: [Select]

somthing:
  - AAAA
  - BBBBB
  - CCC

You have map:

Code: [Select]

foo:
  AAAAAA: bbbb
  CCCC: ddd

I need look at this case if is easy to add this new functionality here too

Thanks for clearing that up. It would be great to see that functionality expanded since it would make (sub)mods a lot simpler to implement. Or is there another way to do this without having to copy&modify the complete definition?

Right now you need copy and paste it.

I now testing new version that will allow for this node to add new values without overwriting old ones.

For the record, this is available since OXCE 6.6
Closing as solved.
